Robin #183

Highlight comes with Tim Drake thinking one step ahead of Lady Shiva. Showing why he’s a contender in the upcoming Battle for The Cowl.

This issue breaks the fourth wall by having the title of the story literally on a letter a supporting character is reading. But why would Jason Todd be in Bruce Wayne’s will to begin with? Since his return as The Red Hood, he shouldn’t even be considered at all for the mantle of Batman.

A little side story with Drake catching his mother’s killer with some internal struggle about killing him is nice closing. Ending with a Guardian bleeding into The Book of The Dead. How this is gonna tie in with Blackest Night, it’s too early in the game.

Can’t wait for next month with Watchmen hitting theaters and Wonder Woman in stores the day after my birthday.
